which the Group believes should be excluded from underlying financial
performance, and principally relate to impairment and significant closure costs,
exceptional legal provisions and profit or loss on disposals. Remeasurements
include adjustments to ensure that the unrealised gains or losses on non-hedge
derivative instruments are recorded in underlying earnings in the same period as
the underlying transaction against which these instruments provide an economic,
but not formally designated, hedge.
